Abstract
A phototriggered conjugation reaction of an aminocyclobutenedione and an acidic nucleophile was discovered. Upon blue light irradiation of the materials, a butenolide derivative with substituents derived from the aminocyclobutenedione and the nucleophile was produced. The reaction proceeded efficiently under organic solvent or organic solvent/aqueous buffer (1/1) conditions. This reaction would be useful for the synthesis of unique butenolide derivatives and derivatization of acidic functional groups contained in aqueous biomolecules.
